Here’s the ninth volume of the GonzoCast series, featuring some excellent funk/soul found in my two favorite music shops in Paris: Groove Store and Le Silence de la Rue.

There’s a lot of James Brown in there, but that’s only because I came upon a huge stash of his EPs and I bought the whole thing. Also, he rocks!
